Music playing at a reasonable level to allow conversation. We ordered the BBQ pineapple burger and Hatch Chili burger, both rehab size, 10 oz and a side of sweet potato tots. Our server was friendly and helpful, answering questions and providing recommendations. We ordered a couple of Mother Road IPAs to accompany our meal. The beers arrived after a few minutes. Cold and refreshing. The food followed about 10 minutes later. The burgers were juicy and delicious. I ordered mine medium rare and the chef nailed it! The sweet potato tots were fresh tasting, crunchy and a little sweet. We truly enjoyed our dining experience and look forward to returning. Highly recommended for a great burger!

The PB&J burger was disappointing. This is their flagship burger and I didn't think it was very good. You barely taste any PB or J, if at all, and it's just a plain burger with an oozing mess. Would love a stronger PB&J flavor on this one. The inside is fine, nothing out of the ordinary, but I must say our server was fantastic. I'd gladly come back and try other options since a lot of them sounded really good.

The chili pesto is not right for this burger (flavors don't jive). And they desperately need different buns. The paradise burger has the same issue (1000 island doesn't work). Stick with the big 3 condiments (mustard, ketchup, mayo). They are trying too hard to get a unique burger. Fries are very basic (crinkle cut would be a nice upgrade). Onions rings with the jalapeño ranch dip is excellent. Service was solid. Limited indoor seating. Overall good experience that could be great with a few changes. "FIMP" Food is My Passion

There's also very poor air circulation given that it's a sports bar it can get very hot inside. I ordered a single cheeseburger with a side of onion rings and it was $9.75 not a bad price for a sport bar in Old Town. It came with the "works" per say. Lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo and a special sauce which was pink- almost tasted like a aïoli. If you are into sports this would be a great place to go as the food is fairly well priced, is pretty good tasting and I don't think anything is frozen or at least it tasted like it was all fresh. A few cons are there isn't service at your table and you have to go up to the bar to order. There is only one area you can order for both food + drinks. The rest of the bar you cannot order even if you are sitting close to the bartender.

Classic hamburger diner, Detroit style. The burgers are great, I really like the smashburgers with…read morenice crispy edges and tasty caramelized onions on a steamed bun. Very yummy. The 1/2 lb burgers are huge and you get a ton of taters tots on the side. The secret here, though, are the chicken sliders! The chicken and swiss cheese slider is absolutely phenomenal, it's exactly what I crave. I wanted the pizza slider also, but they were out of pepperoni. I would definitely get the sliders again, along with a burger. 2 burgers and 4 sliders with one soda for 2 adults + 1 kid was about $50, which is pretty expensive BUT we did not leave hungry (very important!). So the one caveat is that the place is small and if they get busy you are going to have to wait a while for your food. We waited 45 minutes at our table! There is one cook and one server, the vibe is VERY mom 'n pop, and they work their butts off but it can result in very slow service. Also thought it was weird that every kid at other tables got a coloring kit, but ours didn't. Also never got a soda refill. Chalk it up to so busy the waitress didn't notice. Not even gonna dock a star for that, this place deserves all its success.

Let me start off by saying my first 2 visits were not the best. In fact, This place was sitting on a 3 star rating for a while, but my last visit picked up and made up a little. I waited to wrote this review in hopes that they would redeem themselves from my first 2 visits. The first time I came, I had Lemon Pepper Wings which came to me after a very long wait. When I finally got them, they were basically naked wings, like without any seasoning. I asked for the seasoning and one of the bussers came and brought me a cup of it. I sprinkled the wings with it but when I took a bite, they were SALTY AF!!!!! I then had to shake off all the seasoning to be able to finish them. SMH. I also ordered some Sweet Potato Fries which oddly came to me within about 3 minutes. I almost finished them before I finally got the wings. I was seated at the bar and since it was packed, I sat in the only open seat which happened to be between 2 gentlemen. The guy to my left was ready to go and when he asked for his bill, they had charged him for my stuff. Super weird because we clearly weren't together and I wasn't even talking to him the entire time. He kindly alerted them and they adjusted his bill. My second visit the next day wasn't any better. Went in with 2 coworkers for $1 oysters and Happy Hour. We ordered some cocktails which took forever again, and when we asked about them, we were told they didn't have the blended margaritas ready, so she offered us on the rocks instead. We said okay since we were thirsty on a Thursday. We tasted each other's drink and they tasted exactly the same, even though we ordered different ones. I also ordered a 2nd round of 6 oysters for myself which I never got. I had to let our server know that I never got them, so she took them off the bill. Our server wasn't very friendly and she just looked like she wanted to leave. My 3rd and latest visit is when I had the Tomahawk. My friend and I started off with oysters, then ordered their huge Tomahawk, which came with a variety of sauces and a side of French Fries. This time, we came in a little later, around 730 pm or so. It wasn't as busy, so maybe that's the perfect time to go. Service was great that last time, and our drinks were perfect. Overall, it's a cool place and the decor is pretty gnarly, but I feel like they do need to work out some kinks. Prices are average but Happy Hour is where it's at. The Tomahawk special is $99 on Mondays and Tuesdays I believe, and they come with 2 large sides (we went on a Thursday so we didn't get that special). The last visit brought up my 3 stars to a 4. I'll come again, but I hope they stay consistent!

My wife and I love trying out new restaurants and after we heard about Hand Cut Chophouse and the…read moreRiot Hospitality restaurants, we decided to give Hand Cut Chophouse a try in Scottsdale. We did not know what to expect other than having looked at the menu in advance. We had a very good experience there with good food, good service, and an all-around good experience! We would certainly consider returning again in the future (and recommend Hand Cut Chophouse to others). We made a reservation on Open Table and visited on a Saturday evening. We arrived a bit before our reservation and decided to stop by the bar first and enjoyed a cocktail (and a mocktail) before sitting down at our table. There was no wait at the host podium before we were seated at our table. The bartenders, our server, and the managers were great and took the time to get to know us and to answer questions. We ordered a Tempura Zucchini starter, which was fine. I'm not sure I liked the sauce with it, but it felt like a healthy yet breaded starter. Between my wife and I, we ordered a salmon and the Double Smash Burger for our entrees, and we even got a dessert (butter cake) before taking off. We enjoyed each dish though none of the dishes took our breath away. We will likely order and try different dishes on our next visit.

There is also a Happiest Meal on Wednesdays where for $25, you can choose a burger, fries, and drink. For those looking for where at Fashion Square they are located, it is located on Marshall Way just south of Camelback. They only have the one entrance though you can eat outside the restaurant if you'd prefer outside seating.

The staff is friendly and quick to get the food out. It's a really casual spot with a small bar and bar height tables. They do offer outdoor seating when the weather cooperates. The last time I came in, I tried the Sunburst Chicken Bites because I wasn't starving but still wanted sustenance. It was okay, but pretty dry. The sauce helped but it tasted like it was from an old batch as it wasn't hot, either. I'll still come back because it's within walking distance from work and they have a bunch of other things on their menu I want to try. Prices are a bit above average but the portions are pretty generous. Parking in Old Town can be hit ir miss but there's plenty to go around. Check out Karsen's if you're in the area!
